54th Tysabri infusion report...,

Hi everyone, I completed my 54th Tysabri infusion on Tuesday 11/23, and I have been on this medication for more than four years, remaining relapse free all the time, with Tysabri slowing my disease process down, for I surely would be bedridden by now without Tysabri - and for this, I am extremely thankful, especially at this time of year.

Here is an interesting Tysabri information chart/statistics from patients on a very popular MS website (note the Adherence information below):
